`findOrphanPos` selects the most similar output section (that has input
sections). In case of ties, it select the first section.
However, when an orphan section has the same or larger rank than the
most similar sections, it makes sense to select the last similar
section. This new behavior matches GNU ld better.
```
// orphan with the same or larger rank than .data, e.g. .bss
WA (data like section)
(old behavior) <= here
A
WA (data like section)
AX
WA (.data)
(new behavior) <= here
```
